FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Clipper® Wire Hook Fastening System

Since its inception, the Clipper® Wire Hook System has earned a reputation for continued innovation and proven performance. Clipper wire hooks have been designed with a variety of different wire diameters, leg and point lengths, metals, strip lengths and styles, such as Unibar® and carded. All are readily available to meet your individual application needs.

The double-staggered grip pattern gives wire hooks exceptional holding power without degrading the integrity of the belt carcass. Today’s splices also have a very low profile, making them increasingly more compatible with conveyor components and compliant with the need for reduced operating noise.

Unibar® Fasteners

Unibar® fasteners are formed by welding each Clipper® hook to a common bar.

• Welded bar creates a stable strip of fasteners to eliminate damage during handling.
• Patented Safety Strip covers the hook points to protect fingertips, yet is easily removed prior to lacing.
• Hook legs are held parallel to simplify “meshing” of belt ends and the insertion of connecting pins.
• The risk of a single hook disengaging is significantly reduced, particularly important in the food industry.
• The welded bar creates a flat, finished splice so belt “wave” is eliminated.
• Under abusive applications, Unibar spreads shock loads to protect individual hooks.
• Unibar fasteners can be easily cut to the appropriate length, or ordered in special lengths up to 60" (1500 mm).
• They are not recommended for bias splices, troughed belts where common bar breakage is a concern, and where special metals are required.

APPLICATIONS
